PDFs you upload to Peer Evaluation are enhanced with Peerev®, an embedded widget that allows your readers to engage with you informally (comments, discussions), or through a structured peer reviewing interface.

PDFs encapsulating Peerev® are the ones you should be sharing on the Web (to aggregate reviews from the online communities you’ve reached out to).

Sharing on Mendeley is supported and recommended for greater dissemination.

5. Tracking the footprint of your contributions across the Web

Your Peer Evaluation library embeds Total Impact which pushes to your account the diverse online impacts of your ‘research products’ including articles, datasets, software, and grey literature. Total Impact tracks these products' footprints across Mendeley, PubMed, Dryad, CiteUlike, Plos, Twitter, Research Blogs, Wikipedia, Slideshare, Sourceforge, Github and a growing host of non-traditional dissemination channels. More on Total Impact at total-impact.org.

Regularly check Total Impact’s (alt)metrics to find out where your dissemination efforts are yielding results and if your scholarly communications require your attention.

6. Peer to Peer endorsements and transfer of reputation

An important social feature in Peer Evaluation is the ‘I trust this peer’ button, available on all profile pages. Trust relations are equally valuable to your readers, funders and employers. This ‘trust’ feature has more value than a standard ‘Like’ button, since Peer Evaluation displays the names, professions and affiliations of your endorsers.
